Minogue also was joined by Rick Astley to sing his hit "Never Gonna Give You Up" and "Kids", the duet she originally released with Robbie Williams.

Minogue, who celebrated her 50th birthday in May, said both Donovan and Astley had been at her party to mark the occasion, adding: "50 happened this year and for more than half of those years I've been with quite a lot of you."

She went on to thank her fans for sticking with her through "the ups, the downs, the middle of the road, the got it right, got it wrong".
